Blocked [Chapter 1]

    Dan's mother, Carrie, was dropping off Dan for his first day at his new highschool. They recently moved from Manchester to London, and Dan was not very happy with the move. He had left all of his friends- including his now ex girlfriend, Taylor. Dan was nervous for his first day at school. He hadn't even been in London for two days and he's already heading off to a place that could very well be deemed his demise. His mother pulled up in front of the school, and the jerking stop of the car pulled Dan from his cloud of thoughts. 

"We're here!" His mother stated, plastering a smile on her face. Dan sighed and looked out the window. He gasped and grabbed his stomach, proceeding to laugh his guts out.

"M-Mum, did you really bring me to a school called 'Manchester High'?" Carrie giggled and nodded.

"Why not? I thought it would make you feel more at home." Even though the name made Dan giggle, it didn't get rid of the fluttering butterflies at his stomach.  "I'll be back here around 3:35 to pick you up, alright?" Dan nodded and grabbed his stuff, opening the car door. "Have a good day honey!" Carrie smiled and drove off, leaving Dan in a place of unfamiliarity.

"Greaaaat! New school, new 'friends'. Just great!" Dan groaned sarcastically. A certain someone overheard his groaning and strolled her little way over to him.

"Hi! You look like you're lost. I'm Louise!" She gasped in realization. "You must the new kid everyone's talking about!" Dan looked confused and scratched the back of his neck.

"Everyone's talking about me?" Dan looked around. No one was even remotely looking in his general direction.

"Yeah! Well, no... mainly just PJ and Chris, because they seem to know everything, for some reason. You want the latest gossip? Go to them." Dan still had the adorable confused look on his face.

"Um... who's PJ and Chris?" Louise laughed awkwardly.

"You'll meet them eventually. They talk on Manchester High TV. What's your name?"

"U-uh, Dan. Dan Howell."

"Nice to meet you U-uh, Dan Howell" Louise laughed lightly, shaking his hand. "Well class is about to start. You should probably head over and get your schedule from the office." Dan held up a small piece of paper and laughed lightly. "Oh, I see you got it already. Well, let me see it." Dan gave the paper to Louise and she quickly scanned it over. "Well, we have some of the same classes! I'll show you around!" Louise quickly tugged on his arm and flung him up the steps (literally). He gasped in surprise.

"Whoa!" Dan yelped as he was flung into the hard closed door of the school. Louise gasped.

"Oh I'm so sorry!" She tried not to laugh and pulled him into the school.  "1st period, we have History, 2nd period Career Development, 3rd period Math, 4th period Science, 5th is PE, 6th period you have Japanese while I have Spanish and 7th you have Choir while I have Band. Then for your 8th period, they'll let you choose a class, I'm in Drama." Dan nodded and was pulled along by Louise to their first hour. Dan smiled a bit. Maybe it wasn't going to be so hard making friends after all.

      It was now 6th period, Japanese. Dan only took this class because he did not want Spanish. That was like trying to learn Swedish in Australia! Although he might be a bit hypocritical, because Spanish was used more than Japanese in Britain. Dan arrived to his 6th period class and walked in.

"Hello class!" Mrs. Mystic said cheerfully, looking at each of her students. She recognized the new student, Dan Howell.  "We have a new student today! Would you like to present yourself Mr. Howell?" Dan gulped as he slowly walked to the front of the class.

"H-Hii, I'm Daniel Howell but call me Dan..." Dan waved shyly.

"So you guys better be nice to Mr. Dan here!" She smiled. "You can have a seat between Phil and PJ." She pointed toward the seat between them while they smiled and waved. Dan took his seat between them. Mrs. Mystic began to pass out papers, but gave Dan a slip of paper with the starting words and letters on it. A teen beside Pj, Phil Lester, stared at his paper, like he was expecting it to grow wings and fly.

"This is so confusing! Man, I'm so dyslexic you should call me Dyslexic Man!" Pj giggled at Phil's outburst.

"YEAH! You know what they say, Dyslexic Man walks into a bra!" The entire class burst out laughing and Dan fell off his chair. Phil looked at Dan and helped him up.

"I'm Phil. Phil Lester." Dan nodded and smiled shyly.

"H-Hi. I'm Da-" Dan was interrupted by Phil.

"I know, Dan Howell. It's nice to meat you." Dan nodded and watched a small smile paint itself onto Phil's face.

"If you're gonna stare at each other, go ahead and make out too!" PJ hollered at the two. Dan felt his face flush crimson as Phil glared. Chris decided to lighten the mood.

"Dickbutt."
